Roon - the next step?

[Celts88]

Using Roon since some time, really happy. Music collection about 5000 disc.
I disagree with the statement that processor power has any influence on the sound! If this has not been proven seriously, it should not been spread on the forum!
My advice would be to use a fan-less laptop like Microsoft surface, I3 or I5 processor including SSD disk would completely do the job. It will allow to have multiple streams at the same time to your devices like e.g. Devialet, Linn or very cheap Chromcast Audio, if you like. Wireless LAN is not a good idea for the core in Roon.
There are DSP functions possible in Roon like room correction, also data will be resampled if your endpoint won't be able to handle the audio format. With these cases a higher processor makes sense and you might get a worse sound if your chosen processor won't be able to handle all necessary tasks.
In standard usage, any old laptop fulfilling the requirements of Roon will do its job. You might have a reason for a personnel upgrade of your laptop now?
